y=\sqrt{8x+1}
Combine 5x and 3x to get 8x.
\sqrt{8x+1}=y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
8x+1=y^{2}
Square both sides of the equation.
8x+1-1=y^{2}-1
Subtract 1 from both sides of the equation.
8x=y^{2}-1
Subtracting 1 from itself leaves 0.
\frac{8x}{8}=\frac{y^{2}-1}{8}
Divide both sides by 8.
x=\frac{y^{2}-1}{8}
Dividing by 8 undoes the multiplication by 8.
